this is actually a pretty big black mark on Hulu that they had the opportunity to chronicle an extremely newsworthy spectacle and are letting UNC back out of it because it makes them look bad

The German public TV channels - ARD & ZDF - will be able to show 60 of the 104 World Cup matches next summer, if Julian Nagelsmann‘s team qualifies (GER games are protected & must be on a public channel.)
Telekom‘s TV arm Magenta has rights to all 104 games.

I’ll say it: Lianne Sanderson is easily the worst of the present group of #NWSL commentators. she pathologically cannot shut the fuck up and it drives me nuts

Just watched the 10-minute highlight clip of the game yesterday and I would have gone crazy from listening to Lianne during that game had I been watching on television (especially after Rose's winner!)

Is the irony of the president’s friend buying something called “the free press” and immediately installing a government truth compliance officer lost on everybody?
